The XiP series is the old name for the Hopper/Joey system.

The more I talk about it the more I like it. It seems customers enjoy it more too. Those old model numbers a confusing and hard to remember for most customers.
Then, when the bug reports start coming in, we can start calling it the Flopper.
That's what she said.Awkward at first, but getting more used to it.
Oh, you're all just a bunch of Negative Nancy's.
Nope, just a realist. Any new technology will have bugs, and not all of them will/can be found in unit testing. I just wanted to be the first to use the "Flopper" moniker.Oh, you're all just a bunch of Negative Nancy's.

Sounds like HAL 9000, which based on the movie, is 10-year-old tech.Well Dish is technically calling it the Hopper 2000. That makes it sound a little tech like.
